Latest Patents
Larry's latest patents include a "Wire Cutting and Removal Method" and a "Wire Cutting and Removal Apparatus." The wire cutting and removal method involves a roller conveyor that supports a bale at a cutting and removing station. Side compactors and a top compactor compress the bale slightly for positioning it. The bale is pushed against a wire cutting channel where a blade, which protrudes into and forms a groove in the bottom surface of the bale, is passed diagonally across the bale. The wires spring into a recess in the blade, and as the blade continues to move, it pulls the wire against the back wall of the recess until the wire exceeds its tensile strength and breaks. The bale is then lifted on pins so that a wire pulling blade can be moved diagonally across the top of the bale. This pulling blade also has a forwardly inclined surface that pushes the bale down while capturing the wires in a recess in the blade. The blade is moved across the bale, capturing all of the wires and removing them from the bale. Another embodiment of this invention uses a turner to rotate the bale to cut and remove wires from adjacent sides of the bale.
